Santas Who Are Stacked, Santas Who Smoke

Notes on Craigslist perusing this week: there's someone in Hopkinton trying to sell a whole lot of Playskool toys; it's easy to pick up Dave Matthews tickets if you want them; and a nativity scene can be yours (even a glowing one) if you should do a search.  

There is also someone in the MetroWest area offering you an opportunity to make money by printing your own money, legally. Patch didn't feel comfortable passing along that link.

That Santa's stacked, and that's a fact—ain't holding nothin' back

David in Westborough is trying to unload a unique stacking ceramic Santa that is professionally hand-painted for $25. He'll only take cash, and you must pick it up.  

This smoking Santa comes from a non-smoking home

We can't confirm that the David in Westborough with the stacked Santa is the same one with this smoking Santa, but the chances seem high. This ad's got a vintage, rare Santa musical smoker for sale. This Santa has lived in a non-smoking home. Made by the "famous" Halzkunst Christian Ulbrich in West Germany, the smoking 10-inch Santa plays "The Reuge" while insense smoke billows from his mouth. It is suggested for those of you who are looking to recapture the true meaning of Christmas.
